Women as Villains in film.

More recently in our society, we see women taking on larger roles in films, theater, or media in general. Martha Sorren in her article on Bustle.com talks about Mila Kunis’ recent win for Best Villain at the MTV music awards from just last weekend. Kunis was obviously flattered by her victory, as Sorren says that in it’s 23 years since introducing the award, only 5, 6 including Kunis, have won the award. Now, what does this say for the future? Within the next few months we have more and more films coming out starring females, for example the Disney Film “Maleficent.” Despite being the first female in 10 years to win the award, she was also the only female even nominated for this award, a huge victory for her in that regard as well.
